Michael Hurst

Michael from Hercules

Michael first came to my attention in the movies and series Hercules. He played Iolaus, the best friend of the title character, Herc, then carried that same character over into the spin-off Xena. In his several appearances in the two shows, he played Iolaus, Aelus, Charon, Nigel, Paul Robert Coyle, and the Widow Twanky.

He also made appearances in Jack of All Trades and recently in Andromeda, right back alongside his former co-star Kevin Sorbo.
